Who’s driving the debate to #DefundObamacare? It’s not Ted Cruz

The Senate’s newest triple threat — Ted Cruz of Texas, Rand Paul of Kentucky and Mike Lee of Utah — are pushing, pushing, pushing to either de-fund Obamacare or shut down the federal government. Cruz is speaking to bloggers tomorrow at the Heritage Foundation to discuss their strategy and message going forward.

But the freshman senator is not driving the social media debate on de-funding Obamacare. The most influential social media user tweeting on #DefundObamacare is (or was) Tom Holthaus, who has been named one of the 12 top conservative tweeters — but whose account is now blocked by Twitter. (While serving his sentence in “Twitter jail,” as his daughter puts it, Holthaus is remaining active on Facebook and other social media platforms.)
